All language subtitles for Laramie S03E06 The Last Journey

[ horse neighing ]

Go get Jess, Mike.

Howdy, Slim.
It's been a long time.

Did Marshal Briggs
get shot?

We ran into an ambush.

Looks like he's hurt
worse than I thought.

Had to fight off whoever it was
with the marshal's gun.

He'll tell you
when he comes to.

If he comes to.

What happened, Slim?

Not exactly sure, Jess.

Five years in prison didn't
teach you much, did it, Cole?

You got it all wrong, Slim.
I'm a changed man.

Are you?

Looks to me like
you're coming home

in trouble up to your boot tops,
just the way you left.

Now wait a minute.
I--

Give me a hand, Jess.

Easy.

Mike, have you
brought in the wood?

The wood?

Yes, the wood.
Now scoot.

The chore should've been
done an hour ago.

I'm sorry for all the trouble
I've caused, ma'am.

I'm beholden to you for
taking care of Marshal Briggs.

You're
more than welcome.

I think he'll pull through
all right.

I'm glad to hear that.

And that's the truth.

I'd like to believe that.

Only trouble is I don't.

You aren't even trying,
Slim.

Hear what the marshal says
before you judge me.

Judging you
isn't up to me.

Court of law has
already done that.

I served my time
for that.

What about that rustling
you were doing

that I got blamed for?

You think I just put it in
the drawer and forgot about it?

No.

And the pain
and the misery

you caused your wife
and stepdaughter.

And all the troubles you heaped
on everyone that lived near you.

I don't deny any of it.

But you're forgetting
the last 5 years.

I spent them in prison

regretting everything
I've ever done.

I'd like to try to
make it up to them.

I suppose it is asking too much
for anyone to meet me halfway.

I don't think
Slim would deny any man that.

No, I wouldn't, Jess.

Not unless he came riding in
with an old friend of mine,

all shot up
and a lawman at that.

Why was Marshal Briggs
riding with you anyway, Cole?

To make sure
you didn't rob

another payroll
before you got home?

No.

He came along
because I told him

I wanted to wipe
the slate clean,

return the $20,000
I buried.

I asked the marshal for help
and this is as far as we got.

You really think I'd bring him
here if it was some other way?

It only figures, Slim.

If a man
dry-gulches a marshal,

he ain't gonna to tote him
around to advertise it.

All right, maybe I'll swallow
what you're saying, maybe not.

What happens
when you return the money?

What happens?

I wish I knew.

If they'll have me, I'm willing
to spend the rest of my life

trying to make up for what I did
to Ellie and little Mary.

I suppose
she isn't so little anymore.

Let me know
when the marshal comes to.

I like it better outside.
I've been walled up too long.

Well, I guess, you both figured
I was too hard on him.

We know you have
good reasons,

but we both know that
his wife died last week.

After what he's been through,
it won't be easy to tell him.

I've been thinking
about that myself.

I guess the letter
the parson wrote

was delivered to the prison
after Cole left.

You mind telling us
what's bothering you, Slim?

We were all having hard times
just back from the war.

John Cole comes riding in
and marries up with Ellie.

Her husband
was shot at Shiloh.

She and her little girl
needed a man, but not him.

That little girl's
grown up now.

And if he really has changed,
Mary could use some help.

I've been
worried about her,

up there all alone
ever since the funeral.

Daisy, I don't think
Mary would ask John Cole

for the time of day.

And that probably goes
for anyone who ever knew him.

Well, I better see how
Marshal Briggs is getting along.

You know, Daisy,

if Slim doesn't believe
Cole has changed,

you can bet nobody else
around here will.

Yes, that's true, Jess.

[ wagon approaching ]

Visitors?

Oh, it's the Hartleys.

Guess they want
to water their horses.

Mike will
take care of them.

Is there anything else
we can do for the marshal?

I don't think so.

We'll just have
to wait and see.

Any change?

No.

Who drove up?

Joe Hartley and his son.

I guess they want
to water their team.

The Hartleys?

MIKE: Jess, Slim,
they're fighting!

They're fighting, Slim!
You gotta stop them!

[ grunting ]

Stop, Joe.

Get him out of my way,
will you?

Break it off, Hartley!

Let go of me.

Now break it off!

We've got no fight, Brad,
unless you make one.

Are you protecting that
no-good jailbird, Slim?

If stopping a beating
on my ranch is protecting him,

I guess I am.

Well, you got a short memory
after what Cole did to you,

and all of us.

He paid for it.
Now leave him be.

All right, Slim, for now.

We're leaving, Brad.

At least there's one thing.

Poor Ellie ain't alive

to have to look at that
thieving face of his again.

What did he say?

Ellie's not alive?

She died last week.

The letter telling you about
it must have just missed you.

Ellie dead?

That can't be.

I'm afraid it is.

I was gonna tell you
when I found the words for it.

Maybe, you shouldn't have
stopped him, Slim.

All right, Mike,
there's your card.

Yeah, it is.

You're pretty handy
with those cards, Cole.

Years of practice,
five of them.

Show me another trick.
Can you?

Now, Mike,
Mr. Cole has been very nice

about entertaining you
all evening.

I don't mind, ma'am.

Keeps me from thinking about,
well, a lot of things.

Slim has been in with
the marshal an awful long time.

I hope
he isn't tiring him out.

That wound
could open up again.

I'm just thankful
he's gonna live.

Briggs is one lawman
I'd risk my life for anytime.

You gonna do
another trick?

No, Mike, but you are.

Well, I don't know any.

Oh, yes, you do.

Getting ready for bed is
one of the best tricks you do.

Now?
Now.

Come along, young man,
I'll get you started.

Aw, just when things get
exciting, I have to go to bed.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight, tiger.

Well, your story
checks out, Cole.

You seem sorry it did.

Well, not anymore.

From what the marshal tells me,

you probably saved his life
running off that bushwhacker.

Couldn't be sorry for that.

He wants to talk to you.

I'll get you some coffee.

Does the marshal think he know
who gunned him?

He thinks it was someone
tied in with Cole.

You think
Cole's going straight?

Came with him,
didn't he?

Thanks, Daisy.

You look troubled.

Something the marshal said?

Well, he figures he's gonna be
laid up for a week or two,

and he wants me to go with Cole,
bring that payroll back.

You gonna do it?

I don't know, Jess.

It's none of my business.
I got no taste for it.

I owe the marshal a favor.

Pretty hard to refuse him.

Couldn't he get
another marshal?

It'd take too much time,
Daisy.

Sheriff Corey is out of town
and a lot could happen

before someone else
got here.

If you want, I'll go, Slim.

You believe in Cole, huh?

Let's say I believe
in him enough

to give him a chance
to prove himself.

Anyway, last time
I had my fortune told,

they said I was gonna go
on a long trip.

Slim, no one can blame you
for how you feel about the past

but you can't live that
over again.

It's what's ahead
that counts.

Oh, I know that, Daisy.

I'm just not sure
if I want to get tied in

with John Cole
for any reason,

no matter
what the stakes are.

Even if he returns
the money

and makes a good home
for his stepdaughter?

Well, Slim, you weren't
exactly fond of me

the first time I turned up
on your doorstep.

Are you two
trying to get rid of me?

I guess he thinks we can't
run the place without him.

You know, I reckon
he does, Daisy.

I meant what I said
about going, Slim.

If anyone goes, Jess,
it'll be me.

Marshal was saying
you might ride with me, Slim.

You made up
your mind yet?

Yeah, we'll leave early
in the morning.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I think
I'll look in on Mike,

in case I don't see him
in the morning.

Looks like
you're on the road home again.

Yeah, it does.
Kind of hard to believe.

I can't think of anyone better
than Slim to have on your side.

Can you?

Well, no, ma'am,
guess not.

Except maybe one other.

Who's that?

I was thinking of Mary.

Now I ain't her real pa,

but she's all I've got
left of Ellie.

It'd sure be nice
if she didn't hate me too much.

Look out, Slim!

An ambush up ahead,
get down!

What kind of a trick
are you trying to pull?

There's a rifle barrel
on the hill,

sun reflecting on it.

The best excuse
you can think of.

[ gunshot ]

[ gunshot ]

Afraid he had you
in his sights.

Don't be sorry for that.

I owe you.

You better keep it, in case
we have any more trouble.

[ horse neighing ]

Well, I guess you can see
Mary and Ellie

have been hard pressed
to keep this place going.

Yeah, I kept worrying
about that,

knowing things would be
just the way they are.

Well, they were too proud
to let anyone help much.

It's funny, I've been waiting
for this for a long time.

Now I'm about
half-scared

what Mary is gonna say
when she sees me.

Want me to wait here?

Me go in there alone?
No thanks.

You better come on
before you change your mind.

[ gunshot ]

MARY: That's close enough!

Who are you?
What do you want?

It's Slim Sherman, Mary.

Can we talk to you?

Slim, I didn't know
it was you.

Sure, ride on up.

I hope you're not mad
about that shot,

but there's been somebody
sneaking around the ranch

the last couple of days.

No harm done.

You know, when you learn how
to sight that long gun of yours,

you're gonna have to figure out
a new way to say hello.

I could've have put a bullet
through the both of you,

and you know it.

Speaking for myself,
I'm glad you didn't.

What are you doing
clear up this way?

If it'll make you feel
any better, Mary,

go ahead, use my
old squirrel gun on me.

I got it coming.

He served his time, Mary.

Did he?
For killing Ma?

Her grave's
right over there, Slim.

She died
trying to keep us alive.

Sure he served his time
for what he did,

but Ma's the one
that paid for it.

I've come
to make it up to you, Mary,

the best I can.

You stay out of my sight,
John Cole.

That's the best thing
you can do for me.

I don't blame you
for how you feel.

But give me a chance
to right things.

You just don't understand,
do you?

There's no way
to make things right.

No way on earth.

Mary, why don't you--

Keep out of this.

If he stays, I leave.

You don't have to do that.
I won't try to stay.

Just give me a minute
to say goodbye to Ellie.

Then we'll be riding.

I'll check our gear.

Five years in prison
might have changed him.

I thought you were
gonna check your gear.

Oh, yeah.

There's something
you ought to know.

I'm riding with your stepfather
to dig up that payroll he buried

before he was arrested.

He's giving it back.

You don't really believe

he's gonna turn in
the money, do you?

I want to.

You shouldn't.

Ma believed in him
and look what it got her.

I know,
but you can't go

through the rest of your life
hating him.

Can't I?

You don't believe
that prison changed him?

Not a man like him.

He's rotten clear through.

Where'd he go?

You see?

You trust him
out of your sight,

and you never know
what'll happen.

[ gunshot ]

All right, ease off.Danny!

Mary, you shouldn't have
come out here.

Now what's this
all about?

He drew down on me

when I was standing by
Ellie's grave,

forced me to come here
with him.

What are you after?

Him.

I'm after him.

But, Danny, why?

I'm sorry, Mary,
I should've told you before,

but I just couldn't.

When I first
came out here,

I was looking for him to see
if he was out of jail.

To see him?
You said it was to see me.

It was, Mary, I swear,
almost from the very beginning.

But you and your ma
were so good to me,

I just couldn't tell you
what it was I really came for

that first night
I came riding in.

Then maybe
you better tell me now.

I came here to kill him.

If you want to do that, son,
you may have to stand in line.

He claims to be
Danny Hode, Slim,

I used to ride
with his pa, Will.

Yeah,
yeah, you rode with him.

You rode with him and you--

Ease off.

I didn't do it, son.
Will was a friend of mine.

Ma and I didn't know,
Danny.

It was something we weren't
too proud of, believe me.

If you were so sure of this,
why didn't you bring in the law?

'Cause we were in no shape
for that kind of justice.

My ma found my pa
half dead.

Before he died,
he told her about the hold-up

and how you gunned him.

Like I said,
I didn't do it, son.

Ma didn't want
folks to know

so she said he shot himself
in a hunting accident.

She left it up to me
to take care of him.

And that's what
I've been waiting for.

Was it you sneaking around
the ranch the last few days?

That's right.

Oh, Danny,
I wish I'd known.

I might have been
able to help you.

Oh, Mary,
you don't mean that.

Don't be too sure
about that, Slim.

You mean it doesn't make
any difference?

I mean the way
you feel about me?

How can I blame you
for wanting to do in a man

who's more than likely
got it coming to him?

I'm not saying
you're right, Danny,

but it isn't hard to understand
how you feel.

Well, when I started this job
I thought it was gonna be easy.

This kind of changes things.

Why?
He's wrong.

We can clear this up
when we get back.

He just tried to kill you.

For all I know he took
shots at me on the trail

and could have wounded
the marshal.

I ain't never gunned nobody
in my whole life, mister.

Well, that's only
part of it, Hode.

If what you claim is true,
Cole could be guilty of murder.

Well, there's one thing
you do know I'm guilty of,

saving your life.

Yeah, and I've been leaning over
backwards trying to save yours.

I'm taking you both
back to Laramie.

We'll let the law
settle this.

We're so close,
a day's ride,

you can take us
and the money back.

Sure, just like that.

But I'm not hankering
to have a bullet in my back.

Wait a minute.

What money
are you talking about?

The money from the hold-up,
Danny.

He's claiming
he's gonna return it.

Ain't that a laugh?

That money's gonna be
returned, Mary,

one way or the other.

Don't do this to me, Slim.

Being so close to wiping
the slate clean after 5 years

and then not doing it,

that's pretty hard to take.

That money's kept
this long.

Few more days
won't make any difference.

Besides, it's beginning
to look like you've got

more writing on that
slate of yours than I figured.

Now you all mount up, unless
you want to walk into Laramie.

It's a funny thing
about you.

First you took
my ma away from me.

You're taking the only man
I ever cared about

because
he wants to kill you.

And now you drink
the last of my coffee.

It'll be better, Mary, as soon
as the law straightens it out.

I want to thank you
for the meal before we ride.

Are you packed yet?

Are you sure
Mrs. Cooper wants me?

I'm positive.

Daisy started a new war
on dirt around the place

and she's sure gonna
need some help.

Come on, eat up.

We've got a long ride
ahead of us.

DAMON: Nobody moves.

Nobody gets hurt.

Hello, John.

Stand up, mister,
and put that gun on the table.

Do it, Slim.

He's killed too often
to care who gets it.

Oh, I ain't that bad,
John.

But I mean what I say.

Now move real easy or else
this gun just might go off.

Who is he, Cole?

Damon Johntry.

Five years ago, he talked me
into trying that hold-up.

I did what?

He's the man
you both want.

He killed your pa to cut down
on the shares of the loot.

Wounded Marshal Briggs
and tried to gun you

to get at me
and the money.

Now, John, you're gonna
give these fine people

the wrong idea about me.

You've got the upper hand now,
mister.

But don't plan on it
staying that way.

Thank you for the advice,
but I've been waiting too long

to get my hands
on that payroll money.

It'd be a shame
what would happen to you

or anybody else
that tried to stop me.

You'll have to find it alone,
I'm not showing you.

I think you will, John boy.

I got a fine talking point
here in my hand.

One that could spread
around a lot of trouble

in her direction,
at your tall friend there,

and especially at you,
John boy.

You always did talk big
with a gun in your hand.

You cut me down,
you'll never find that money.

If I do cut you down,
Cole,

you won't find that money
either.

All right,
I'll bargain with you.

You'll have the money,
but nobody here gets hurt.

Don't listen to him,
Johntry.

He was returning
the money to the law.

That's why he's here.

He was what?

Giving it back.

All of it.

That might be hard
for you to figure.

But you didn't spend 5 years
in the lock-up.

I'm starting over,
going straight.

I don't believe it.

I don't give a hang
what you believe.

That's why I'm willing
to bargain their lives

against that money.

It don't matter now,

but he may be telling the truth.

I got the same story
from both of them.

What's your interest
in this?

I'm Danny Hode.

I reckon you knew my pa,
Will Hode?

COLE:
That's right, Johntry.

Your old enemy
come back to haunt you.

Oh, no, not me, Cole.

You're the one
that killed him.

Let's see
you lie out of it now, Cole.

He was there.

That's what I've been
trying to tell you, boy.

He killed your pa, not me.

Somehow
that just don't add up.

Especially since you was
the one to hide the money.

Yes, sir, killing you
is just dying to be done.

This sounds
real interesting.

Move over here, son,
I got an idea.

Now I'll do the bargaining,
Cole.

Well, you're holding the gun,
go ahead.

As long as I got to keep you
and your friends alive

in order to get the money,
I'm gonna need some help.

Now you throw him
with me, son,

I'll give you
your pappy's share.

I liked old Will.

And I'll be glad
to help out his boy.

Don't do it, Hode.

You'll regret it
the rest of your life.

What about Cole?

That's part of the bargain.

Those two go free.

You get him.

I'm not looking
to bail out this way.

I know.

I wasn't thinking about you.

All right, Johntry,

I'll show you
where the money's hid.

But before we get it,
Slim and Mary ride off free.

And you can do
what you want.

Sounds fair enough.

Of course, if you and me
are gonna strike up

a little partnership,
you're entitled to a say in it.

As long as I get him,
the rest don't matter.

Just so as the girl
don't get hurt.

You're gonna have to help me
watch him all the time.

It'll be a pleasure.

This puts you
on my side for sure.

And don't wait for an invite
if you have to use it.

A bullet in the leg
will slow any man down.

All right, Cole,
let's get organized.

We're riding.

It's close to 30 miles.

We'll have to sleep out
on the trail.

That's better than
waiting around here.

Somebody might come by.

Sorry you got
hooked into this.

A lot can happen
in a day's ride.

All right, outside.

Keep an eye on him, son.

Get moving.

You must have known Johntry
would be coming after you.

Why do you think
I wanted the marshal's help?

Couldn't figure on
young Hode, though.

Are you gonna do
what you said?

Lead them
to where you hid the money?

Yeah, unless we can jump them
before we get there.

You willing to try?

You can bet on that.

Cut the talk!

Looks like you and me
have been hating the same man

for the last 5 years.

Tell you the truth, I ain't
hardly thought of nothing else.

Except maybe you.

Is that why you kept riding out
without saying goodbye?

I didn't know
what else to do.

Felt like I was being
sawed back and forth

over a picket fence,
hating him...

loving you.

But I guess I wasn't really
much good at either one, was I?

Oh, I'm not complaining.

I never did expect him
to be like he is, though.

I wish
I could make you understand

that what you want to do
isn't right,

but I don't know
how to tell you.

Especially when I wished him
dead myself.

Here,
let me help you.

Thanks.

Hey, Danny,
you don't really figure

your new partner
is gonna give you

a share of that money,
do you?

Don't let him
rattle you, son.

He's just trying to
split us.

Slim's right, Danny.

Johntry killed your pa,
then came after me.

But I got away from him
with the money.

[ Damon laughs ]

Cole, you maybe have
changed in some ways,

but you are
still the world's best liar.

I'll say amen to that.

He sweet talked poor Ma
into marrying him,

and made her life
a wrecked pen full of trouble.

I said I was wrong, Mary.

What more do you want?

I want you to suffer,
the way she did.

Mary, if he's willing
to risk his life

so you and I can go free,
isn't that enough?

I don't know.

These last 5 years
just about convinced me

that life isn't worth living.

I'd like to prove to you it is,
Mary.

I'll be getting me
some money now,

part of it ought to be yours.

You got as much right to it
as I have.

Now hold on there, son.

You do what you want
with your share,

but there ain't gonna be
no three-way split.

Ain't nobody talking about
your half, Johntry,

so back off.

How about it, Mary,
you think you might want to

ride with me
when this is over?

Might help make up
for some lost time.

It's owed us,
don't you think?

Don't listen to him, Mary.

You'll find nothing good
in stolen money.

Nobody ever has.

I know what it's like
to have nothing,

to always
be doing without.

I guess if Danny wants
to try it another way,

I won't be the one
to stop him.

You couldn't be more wrong,
Mary.

What Slim says is right.

Believe me, I know.

You're advising me
to stay on the straight

and narrow, is that it?

Or worse things
could happen to you.

They already have.

Then listen to
what I'm saying.

I made a mess out of my life.

Don't make one out of yours.

Sure, Danny,

we'll ride together
and nothing will stop us.

Nothing at all.

You can do that,

knowing that
Hode's gonna gun him down?

If that happens to be
the way it goes,

all Danny will be doing is
saving somebody else a trouble.

Danny!

Break it up.

Let him go.

Go on, get your iron
before you lose it again.

And if you fall asleep
on watch once more,

I'll put a bullet
into you myself.

If you were trying to kill him,
you didn't miss it by much.

He'll live.

And your mother would be
real proud of you, Mary.

Thanks, Mary.

Leave her be.

Your dreaming ways have
caused us enough trouble.

And give me that.

I'll take over
the watch myself.

You settle down, too, miss.

I don't want to hear no more
out of any of you.

You're pushing too hard,
Johntry.

I'm gonna have to
reset this bandage.

All right, just don't waste
any time about it.

Rest your horses.

Johntry close?

He can't hear us.

I'm not feeling as bad
as I make out.

Had to talk to you.

Make it fast.

We'll be riding
into Fire Canyon before long.

I hid that money alongside
on the border in sulphur pits.

That's a good place
to burn to death.

Not if you know
your way in and out.

It's a good hiding place.

Indians are scared of it,
white man can't stand the fumes.

Hold this.

You sure you know what you're
doing leading us in there?

There's another way
out of that fire pit,

kind of a crevice
cut in between the rocks.

Once you're in the clear,

follow the gully out behind it
and you'll see the opening.

Are you sure?

Only one place
I've ever been

that just had one way
out of it, Slim...

prison.

You jump Johntry
and I'll handle the boy.

All right,
on your feet, Sherman.

All right, we're ready.

Are you set?

I'm counting on you,
Slim.

That goes both ways.

How much further?

Few minutes,
no more than that.

You better be right,

or the both of you
will be buzzard bait.

Move out.

[ water bubbling ]

We got to go in there?

If you want the money.

You'll have to be on foot.

All right, Cole,
but I'm warning you.

You try something, your bones
will be alongside them others.

You forgetting
our bargain?

Girl don't want to leave.

Why worry about him?

Slim came out here
as a favor to me.

So you better
get used to the idea.

I'm not showing you
that money

unless he rides out free
before we go in.

That stretch in the pen
sure softened you up, didn't it?

You ever try
arguing with a rock pile?

I reckon that don't mean
nothing to me.

It'll take him more than a day
to get help.

The law knows
what you're up to.

You'll be on the run
anyway.

You better be good
at running, Johntry,

the law will be
after you.

Been at it
ever since I can remember.

You come after me,
I'll give you a few lessons.

If I come after you,
it won't be for lessons.

Fair enough.

If I ever see you again,

there will be a bullet
waiting for you.

Hey, Mary,
you better ride with me.

It's not too late.

I'm sorry, Slim.

I've been doing
without too long,

I can't pass up
this chance.

Ride, mister,

and if you want to stay alive,
keep riding.

[ cocks gun ]

You use that, Johntry,
you'll never see the money.

Make sure
he don't come back.

You're going in
alone with Cole?

Don't worry,
I'll save him for you.

Keep an eye
on the girl, too.

Let's go, John.

Do you think
you can trust Johntry?

I don't think
I can trust anyone.

I didn't mean that.

Trusting you always come easy.

That's what always
made me feel so guilty.

I never did say half the things
I wanted to, to you.

Oh, Danny,
we've wasted so much time.

I wonder if we're doing
what we really want.

I mean, if it don't come easy
to us now,

tomorrow ain't gonna make it
any better, is it?

I wish I knew.

All that talk about running...

I don't know if I'm gonna
be able to handle it.

I ain't had much experience
at that line either.

I guess we could try.

Only--

Only some things
don't seem as important

as they used to, do they?

I don't know.

You get so tired
of hating,

you just want to wake up
some morning

and be like everybody else.

Mary, listen.

I never cared about anyone
in my whole life

the way I care about you.

And I don't want to
lose it.

Not for money,
not for anything.

You better know
where you're going, Cole.

I reckon I do.

Now this ain't too good
a place to get lost in.

Once we do this,
there won't be any turning back,

you know that, don't you?

I know.

Slim hasn't much
of a head start.

We can follow his trail
and catch up with him.

I wonder
what he's gonna think

when we come
riding in empty-handed.

No money, no vengeance,

none of the things
we said we wanted so bad.

A woman has the right
to change her mind.

I hope Slim knew I was praying
I could change yours, too.

I kind of had the feeling

I was being wrapped around
somebody's little finger.

[ cocks gun ]

You make one more move like
that, it's gonna be your last.

You want the money?

It's right up ahead.

All right, move out,
don't get out of line.

The strongbox ought to be
right about here.

Never mind the talk,
just show me.

Oh, that's Slim's horse,
all right.

He sure didn't get very far,
did he?

Look.

Fresh tracks.

He must have gone in there.

I wonder where it leads to.

I think I know.

Pa must have known
about it.

Slim's gonna help him
with Johntry.

That's why he left
without arguing.

That adds up.

Mary, you wait here.

Danny.

Don't worry,
I'll be careful.

There she is,
just the way I left it,

except for a little rusting

Move over there.

[ gunshot ]

Mighty glad you were
telling the truth, Cole.

For once, mighty glad.

Too bad you and nobody else

is going to be able
to share this money with me.

I kind of had a feeling

young Hode
would never get his split.

He'll get his,

just like you and me
split with his old man.

Now fill up them saddle bags.

Hold it, Johntry!

[ Damon screaming ]

At least it was quick.

Likely didn't even know
what happened.

And he said he was gonna have
a bullet waiting for you.

Shows you how wrong
a man can be.

We were just about to
put the money in the saddle bag.

Let's get out of here.

You, uh,
planning on using that?

If I have to.

That's just it,
you don't have to.

You can leave here
and be a free man.

Sure, free and broke,
but not quite free, Slim.

You heard Johntry say
that both him and me

took care of Will Hode.

You wouldn't
forget that soon.

That honest streak in you
is a yard wide.

If you take that money, you'll
be running harder than ever.

Sure,
but the running will be easy.

I'll have your horse
and a good head start

on my way to Canada
before Mary and young Hode

find out they need help.

Now you're sounding
like the old John Cole

I used to know.

How long have you been
planning this?

Five long years now, Slim.

I figured
when I was in the pen

it'd be easier to have
a lawman riding with me,

instead of
following along behind.

Oh, he was gonna help me
with Johntry, too,

but you took care of that.

You put on a good act.

Funny thing about that,
I was getting so

I almost liked it,
being respectable.

It would've been the worst
mistake I ever made--

[ cocks gun ]

[ gunshot ]

That was close.

Well, he got
what he came after.

[ church bell tolling ]

[ laughter and chatter ]

[ screaming ]

She sure makes
a pretty bride.

All brides are pretty,
Jess.

Didn't you know that?

Well, to tell you
the truth, Daisy,

I've never been
to a wedding.

Oh, I've seen them before,

but never real up close
like this.

Really?
I never would've known it.

GIRLS: He's cute.

[ girls giggling ]

What's so dadgum funny?

Uh, that, Jess.

Oh, what's so bad
about a man holding flowers?

Well, nothing, except
those are special flowers.

Well, what's so special
about them?

If I hadn't caught them,
they'd have fell in the dirt.

It's a bridal bouquet.

If you hadn't reached up,

one of the bridesmaids
would have caught it.

Maybe he'll marry
all three of us.

He really doesn't know
what he's done.

Well, I still don't see
what difference it makes.

Well, Jess, you see the person
who catches those flowers is

supposed to
get married next.

Are you kidding me?

No.

[ girls laughing ]

Boy, that was close.

Did I get rid of it
in time?

Well, did I?

I don't know.

[ laughter ]
